Democratic presidential candidate and former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg is joined on stage by supporters during his campaign launch of "Mike for Black America," at the Buffalo Soldiers National Museum, Thursday, Feb. 13, 2020, in Houston.
Their attacks are a sign of how seriously the field is starting to take Bloomberg as he gains traction in the race and is on the cusp of qualifying for Wednesday’s Democratic debate in Las Vegas. Bloomberg has bypassed the traditional early voting states including Nevada, focusing instead on the 14 states that vote in the Super Tuesday primary on March 3.
It marked an escalation of the salvo Sanders launched Saturday against the former mayor, when he ticked off a litany of conservative positions Bloomberg has taken in the past, including opposing a minimum wage hike and his opposition to a number of Barack Obama’s policies while president.
Klobuchar said she’s raised $12 million since her better-than-expected finish in third place in New Hampshire. She’s maintained her campaign through a series of strong debate performances and argued that Bloomberg being on stage with his rivals would level the playing field.Biden, speaking on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” suggested that Bloomberg will face increased scrutiny as the race continues, pointing to his record on issues relating to race.
Biden said today’s racists are not “Bull Connors, not out in overalls. They’re wearing fine suits, and they’re living in the White House.”
Strange man lol
Bloomberg is very uncomfortable. Is he wondering why the mother didn’t kill the baby so her employer could earn more profit?
Someone stop him Bloomberg is recruiting babies for his diamond mines.
It is better than getting money from the big boys and becoming their puppet when become POTUS
At least Trump spent his own money smart on his campaign. This dude blowing a fortune trying to buy and election.
This guy has a secret. He wants to figure it out how children are raped. And God is all for the guy. But should he be president ?
If he’s a Dem and believes in social programs so much why not spend that money on people who need it?
guess he is frisking that baby...Right?
DT2020!!!
I live in WA state, so my vote does not matter as long as we continue to use the easily rigged Electoral College. By the time our votes are even counted, the election is decided. Hence, I could care less about the election or voting. Nobody worth a shit anyways.
Let the guy spend his money. It's obviously for a good cause.
Great photo op. Bloomberg looking every bit the panderer that he is, and that poor baby wanting nothing to do with him.
I’d be scared, too, little one. Very scared.
Democrats hate people who are well off, but look the other way when someone spends $417 MILLION trying to buy their votes. Hypocrisy at its finest
The United States of Money.
Bought.
Socialism
Dem dems gettin that old white billionaire in there , heh? Love it hypocrisy
At least Bloomberg actually has money, not the fake “billions” Trump supposedly has. And he actually earned his money to boot. Please buy the election!
Heck, you could say that of darn near every candidate since this nation's inception.
And yet not one of them has attacked Trump with the same vigor. It's causing me to wonder if any of them have what it takes to beat Trump. Instead of keeping the attacks on Trump while touting themselves, they seem hellbent on doing Trumps job by attacking each other
Money doesn’t necessarily mean votes...Amy received more votes than Tom in NH and guess who spent more $
Dems are handing this election to Trump Pete - no black votes Amy - no black votes Mike - no black votes Bernie - Trumplike/unrealistic policies (🖕🏾you Bernie supporters) Tom - who? Liz - brilliant, but no one’s paying attention to her Biden - lying, dog-faced pony soldier 😳😂
Anyone that says advertising doesn’t work is a fool
He’s not trying to buy the election, he’s trying to be the unelectable Democrat that gives his buddy Dildo Trump a second term. Don’t fall for it. Sanders2020
🤔 Billionaire Bloomberg claims he 'could teach anybody to be a farmer,' even implying that farmers don't have the same level of 'skillset' or 'grey matter' as folks in tech jobs. So demeaning, elitist, and out-of-touch it's appalling.
Thats what they do in Asia, buy the votes.
stb8444 AP providing more fake news.
Even if he is buying his way to a Democratic convention win; If he is elected the Democratic Presidential candidate, I’m voting blue no matter who. Beats the alternative, another four years of Trump and his circus.
Stop and Frisk, Communist Party of China, etc. Don't vote for this man.
A little gratitude for Bloomberg saying he will negate all the Republican's election funding that comes from God knows where, from his own pocket... Win or lose. Once the primaries are over our candidate who ever they are will need it... We can't afford not to have the help.
Duh how else would he win. But Hillary tried the same thing but it didn't work
A B T
Jealousy rearing its ugly head in the Democratic primary, shocking! Sanders2020 PeteForAmerica Warren2020 Biden2020 Bloomberg2020 Klobuchar2020 Democrats DemocratsTheEnemyWithin 2020Elections
As long as he is not accepting money from billionaire companies, I am ok with it
Are you for sale?
Bloomberg is paying black leaders & ministers money to endorse him and they're taking the bait. If you don't think money is being exchanged you're foolish
It obvious that he is!
You got this Mike. Haters gonna hate. Bloomberg2020
News flash - the ones who raise the most money got to debate - so who is buying the election?
I listened to Mike B. on c-span tonight,& his whole speech was nothing more than Trump-bashing- very unimpressive.
Uh oh. Doesn't look comfortable holding that child.
Why is he even wasting our f****** time, or his.
bloombergisaracist
Hey mikey, I've got some bills if you are just going to be throwing away money like that.
If they're all going to attack him, will MikeBloomberg stop playing nice? He could start by suing for plagiarism: 'Buttigieg acknowledged that he failed to recognize the pain that his decisions made, particularly for communities of color.'🤔
That’s a weird argument. They’re spending other people’s money, he’s spending his own. Why is that worse? Anyone that doesn’t win besides him is wasting other people’s money.
Sanders and Warren are trying to buy the nomination, too. The difference is they want everybody else to buy it for them. That’s how socialism works.
Listen Dems let’s be smart here and not bring a knife to a gun fight. Bloomberg and/or Biden are the only 2 candidates that can extinguish the dumpster fire. Buttigieg/Sanders/Warren are good but too progressive to attract the moderates needed to win WH.
Keep spending the money working to elect a Dem!!!!! Thank you MikeBloomberg
I have an issue with billionaires because they simply can’t spend that much money, it’s a drain on the economy. Whatch Brewsters Millions! But he’s spending it, go Bloomberg!
The only one so far who has focused on attacking and beating Trump - instead of attacking and beating other Dem candidates. I don't care if Biden can beat Klobuchar or Bernie can beat Buttigieg. SHOW ME YOU CAN WIN A FIGHT WITH TRUMP ffs.
Truth be told, he is trying to buy the nomination. What else would you call spending hundreds of million dollars of his own money?
It’s time for the Democrat Circular Firing Squad to appear in plain sight for everyone to behold in Asvance if Super Tuesday! Hey Dems, throw those haymakers at your opponents and we’ll get the 🍿KAG2020LandslideVictory
Such a joke. The Congress has passed legislation allowing tons of $$$ in politics and now they complain when it works to their detriment? Go pound salt Dems. The whole damn thing has gotten out of hand.
How many student loans could have been paid off for people with professional degrees with that same money? Instead he uses it to stroke his little man ego.
Bloomberg is a Furry.
Oh brother!
YOU SUCK MikeBloomberg
I hope that child was inoculated for snake bites.
I sure as hell wouldn't hand my baby over to Bloomberg!
He’s not buying my vote.
What if you didnt know about Bloomberg unless he paid a certain channel for ad space? The amount of stories about Bloomberg shows that hes spending serious money on media stations.
GO BLUMBERG!
What a bunch of crap.... ALL elections are bought. It just depends on who the elected official owes.
Democracy is losing out to plutocracy in the US
How much of his own fortune- lol- has the King of Debt spent on his campaign
HES BUYING THR FUCKING ELECTION, MAKE YHAT THE HEADLINE!!!
Wahhh, Wahhhhh. 😢😢😢😢
He is pointing all ads against Trump, not other Dems... They can learn from that. Whether you like him or not.
They think Bloomberg can outspend Trump. What they fail to understand? It's not about the money. StayStupid
DOES IT IMPLY THAT DEVELOPED AS US CLAIMS TO BE, THEIR NATIONAL CAN ACCEPT JUNK AD MESSAGES TO INFLUENCE THEIR PERSONAL CHOICES - IT SEEMS ILLOGICAL /CLAIM FOR PEOPLE'S FREEDOM IS MARHETABLE. PEOPLE MAY COLLECT AD MONEY & STILL RETAIN THEIR FREEDOM.
Is it just me, or does he not know how to comfortably hold a babe?
If you could buy the election, styer would have it wrapped by now . You still need a message that resonates
Oligarchs can enslave minorities to make their billions and then say whatever they want, while manipulating opinion by spending Billions they made enslaving the minorities.
Holding a black baby? Pretty soon he will change the diapers before TV cameras? All to get into WH & urinate in AF1 while the Marines salute him?
That look when they're almost too young to throw 'em against the wall and frisk 'em in search of a Fourth Amendment protected right.
He is the only one who can take on Trump. If the Democrats select Bernie, he is going to loose bad vs Trump.
In the end, Trump will have trolled Bloomberg to piss away 2 billion of his own dollars for nothing.
. Mike Bloomberg is no longer the elephant in the room; he owns the room.
How much did he funnel through bloomberg media ?
Worried much.
He’s gaining traction because he’s literally trying to buy the election.
Get mad at a guy who's spending his own money, then talk about how you want to spend more of everyone else's money.
My vote is for PeteButtigieg but I'm not going to lie and say that I don't appreciate Mike Bloomberg publicly fact checking trump. We need to vote this entire corrupt GOP administration out. Every...single...one.
Mike is frisking the brown baby
Jealous broke bitches.
